Well…sitting here feeling a little old and there is good reason for it….my youngest one turns 30 today….cripes, I can still remember turning 30 even though it was a long, long time ago. Not sure what any of this means other than time flies…and my oldest one is going to turn 40 next month….and that is another yow….oh, well….

Well…not really running at all today so far…woke up during the night last night with knee pain that I just can’t figure out…must have slept with them positioned wrong…they don’t hurt now so maybe it’s a one time thing…..feel a little iffy right now so I am going to just try to ease into the day….didn’t do a whole lot yesterday and today looks the same…I did get some of the kitchen cleaned and the microwave doesn’t look like someone died in it….and I should do the floor today and I just might….but, I’m not motivated right now so that will have to wait til later….and I do need much more coffee….more later….
Tiny fighter planes….
Well…it was a better day on the bike today and the torture level dropped quite a bit…enough that I did do an entire run that ended up in the park. While there, I was just vegging a little looking out across the field that is right in front of the bench I always sit on and I noticed almost 50 tiny little fighter planes…or scissor tail swallows feeding over that field…if you’ve ever watched them, you will get the tiny fighter plane reference….they look just like that the way they wheel and dive…I was really surprised there were no collisions there were so many of them out there…just fun to watch…
July 30th
Well…woke up this morning with my back hurting like crazy and that continues now….not sure what the deal is….slept okay last night but feel pretty crappy this morning and I think it’s partly from not eating enough….I almost forgot to do this this morning and that is how out of sorts I am today….just feel off and I’m not sure why….and the coffee is not helping…I wonder if I should stay off the bike today? Nope…already took the ibuprofen so I need to get out soon…didn’t get a lot done yesterday other than cooking but I do need to clean some today….and try to figure out the second meal for the day….just missed the meal planning for the week and I’m not sure why that is…I guess it’s part of being off a little….more later….
July 29th
Well…running a little late today…just can’t get going…got out of bed late and left the window open in the kitchen last night…it’s pretty cold in here with it getting down to 54 last night….but, I didn’t have to put the air on last night so I guess that’s something….I got up without pain this morning but I am still thinking of taking the day off the bike…oh, I won at pool yesterday….have been on the bike for 3 1/2 months straight now and I can feel my legs slowly going flat from it….but, the weather is so nice that I don’t want to waste the day…..I do have a chicken brining to cook for lunch today and I am looking forward to that…I know I haven’t been eating enough…cripes, how long have I been saying that? I should weigh about 100 pounds by now…but, I don’t….more later…..
July 28th
Well….not running late or early today so I wonder what that means? Had an okay day yesterday and I got some things done around here and that felt good so I think I’ll do more today…I do have to wash the car this morning after coffee so it will dry and I can wax it if I feel like it…slept okay last night and feel okay this morning if a little slow…no pain anywhere and that is a good thing…my back has been cracking itself again as I worked around here yesterday and that is a relief…it’s been a few days now since I’ve had pain there and I’m hoping it gives me a week or so before the pain comes back….not much to do today….pool, of course, and I need to get the chicken in a brine for cooking tomorrow…not sure how much else I’ll do but maybe that’s enough…more later….
July 27th
Well….running a little late today with having to stop at two stores to finish up the groceries….and that was a pain…but, I had the top down in the car and it was cool…but, it is so darn muggy out there and in here that I am sweating already…should be a nice ride on the bike this morning…I am a little disappointed we didn’t get any storms yesterday and it looks like we won’t today….darn…slept okay last night and feel pretty good today so I think I’ll get some things done around here….I do need to get a chicken brining to get ready to roast it…but, I may wait until tomorrow so I can cook it Sat….68 cents a pound is pretty cheap for a whole chicken….I do need to figure out what I am going to have for the second meal, though….not much to do today…I think I’ll clean up around my weight machine and vacuum…not a lot of work but something…more later….
July 26th
Well….up and running early today but that’s not unusual when I’m good the previous night….my knees started to hurt yesterday and that continues today…I thought the moving tendonitus had settled in my wrists this year but it just may have picked this week to move to the knees….we’ll see when I get out on the bike today….slept okay last night and even had a little dream time and that hasn’t happened in a month or more so that was cool….had to chase a bee around the place last night and found out I didn’t do a good job of getting rid of the spiders since it flew into a web and I watched the spider work on it for almost an hour…tiny little spider….not much to do today…started cleaning, finally, and will continue that today with more work on the living room…more later….
July 25th
Well…have been up since 6 and I’m not sure why I’m running late….I think I’m bored already and that might be part of it….slept okay last night but I still have the fatigue that I’ve had a for a few days now…part of that is I’ve been on the bike for three months straight now and I need to find an excuse to stay off it for a day….almost did yesterday but it was just too nice…don’t hurt too much today but I still think I’ll take something before I get on the bike…that works really well after I’m done and keeps me from hobbling later in the day….not much to do today….I did start getting rid of the cobwebs yesterday and need to continue that today….and maybe cook something…that may help the fatigue, too….more later…..
July 24th
Well….still having problems getting going again and I think the fatigue may keep me off the bike today…I need a day off at some point…but, I may wait until Wed when it will be raining….slept okay but lost an earplug again and that is annoying…..at least my back doesn’t hurt today and that is a good thing….didn’t get a lot done yesterday but I will change that today…..after coffee that is….I do need to vacuum today and get rid of some cobwebs…just had an annoying one across my face and I hate that….more later….
